Good morning gentlemen,

My granny is thinking about selling her car, and the wheels pictured have been on there since she bought the car about 15 years ago.



I have always thought they might be worth something, am I right or wrong?

Thanks a lot for any advice. :-)

they're definitely worth about £10 a wheel down the local scrappy!

Gonna depend on what car they are on, what condition they are all in and what the sizes are

IE, something like a Golf, and there is a big market for you to sell to, where as something like a 3 stud Citroen AX, its gonna be a very small market so less likely to get a "good" price.

Ok thanks. They're a long way from where I am right now so I can't check these things easily. I was just wanting a rough idea.

They're aluminium...

14" BBS's, guess they're on a Golf so 4x100. Probably get £100 - £150 for them on a VW enthusiast forum.

they're not worth as much as you think I'm afraid. I had the same ones on my MK2 golf & I think they're now selling for about £20/30 a wheel.

Where abouts are you based, I'm always keen to get my hands on alloys to refurbish.
